On a conveyor belt, there can only be two boxes moving at a time. The total weight of the boxes cannot be more than 300 pounds. Let x and y represent the weights of the two boxes on the conveyer belt.

a. Write an inequality that describes the weight limitation in terms of x and y.

b. Two boxes are to be placed on the conveyor below. The first box weighs 175 pounds. What is the maximum weight of the second box?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The maximum weight of the second box is 125 pounds. (The box can weight  less than 125 pounds, but no more than 125 pounds since the total weight of the boxes cannot be more than 300 pounds.)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y ≤ 300

175+y ≤ 300

Substract 175 on both sides:

y ≤ 125

Answer 2

The inequality that describes the weight limitation in terms of x and y is -

x + y ≤ 300 and the maximum weight of second box can be 125 pounds.

We have a conveyor belt such that there can only be two boxes moving at a time. The total weight of the boxes cannot be more than 300 pounds.

It is given in the question to assume let x and y represent the weights of the two boxes on the conveyer belt.

We have to find -

a) - inequality that describes the weight limitation in terms of x and y.

b) - If two boxes are to be placed on the conveyor belt and first box weighs 175 pounds then what is the maximum weight of the second box?

What is inequality?

Inequality in mathematics is a relation that is used to compare two or more algebraic expressions.

According to the part 'a' of the question -

The inequality that describes the weight limitation in terms of x and y is -

x + y ≤ 300

According to part 'b' of the question -

x = 175 pounds

The maximum weight of second box can be found out by substituting the value of 'x' in inequality in part a.

175 + y ≤ 300

y ≤ 125

Hence, the maximum weight of second box can be 125 pounds.

a school has 294 chairs.there are 14 chairs at each table. two chairs will be removed from each table.how many chairs will be left in the cafeteria?

Answers

Answer:

252

Step-by-step explanation:

because there are 14 chairs at each table => there are: 294/14= 21 (tables)

two chairs will be removed from each table => the number of chairs removed are: 21.2 = 42 (chairs)

the chairs  will be left in the cafeteria are: 294 - 42 = 252( chairs)

When two chairs will be removed from each table, then there would be 252 chairs left in the cafeteria.

The dividend divisor quotient remainder formula:

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder.

For given question,

total number of chairs = 294

there are 14 chairs at each table.

So, to find the number of tables in the cafeteria we need to divide total number chairs by 14.

The number of table would be,

= 294/14

= 21

This means, there are 21 tables.

If we remove two chairs from each table, then number of chairs at each table would be 14 - 2 = 12

So, the total number of chairs left in the cafeteria would be,

= 21 × 12

= 252

Hence, there will be 252 chairs left in the cafeteria.

One inlet pipe can fill an empty pool in 12 hours, and a drain can empty the pool in 16 hours. How long will it take the pipe to fill the pool if the drain is left open?

Answers

Answer:

48 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

So one Pipe can fill an empty pool in 12 hours, and a drain can empty the pool in 16 hours.

So let's just say that x is the value for how much the pool was filled, and y is the time taken.

So which means :

X = [tex]\frac{1}{12}y[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{16} y[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{12}[/tex] represents the volume of the tank being filled up in one hour while [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex] represents the volume of the tank being drained in one hour. By subtracting, we get to know the volume of the tank being filled up in one hour.

So, we solve the equation.

To find X, we make the denominator of the two fractions the same.

X = [tex]\frac{1}{12}y[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{16} y[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1(4)}{12(4)}y[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1(3)}{16(3)}y[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4}{48}y[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3}{48}y[/tex]

Then, we subtract.

[tex]\frac{4}{48}y[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3}{48}y[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{48}y[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{48}[/tex] is the volume of the pool that is filled in one hour

Finally, we find the time taken for the pipe to fill the pool.

If one hour fills [tex]\frac{1}{48}y[/tex] of the pool, then :

1 = [tex]\frac{1}{48}y[/tex]

y = 48 hours.

So, the time taken for the pipe to fill the pool with the drain left open is 48 hours.

1. A local pizzeria sold 65 pizzas yesterday.

(step 1) The owner offers the employees a bonus if the number of pizzas sold increases by 20% today. How many pizzas must the pizzeria sell for employees to receive the bonus? Explain your reasoning.

(Part 2) Suppose the actual number of pizzas sold today was 60. Describe the number of pizzas sold as a percent increase or decrease, rounded to the nearest hundredth. Show your work.

Answer:

Answers

Part 1

Pizzas sold last day = 65

Increasement needed in sale = 20%

pIzzas to be sold today

= 65 + 20% of 65

= 65 + 20/100 × 65

= 65 + 1/5 × 65

= 65 + 1/1 × 13

= 65 + 13

= 78

Part 2

Pizzas sold last day = 65

Pizzas sold today = 60

60 = 65 + x% of 65

60 = 65 + x/100 × 65

60 - 65 = x/20 × 13

- 5 = x/20 × 13

-5/13 = x/20

-5/13 × 20 = x

-7.692 = x

Therefore, there was a decrease in pizza sale by 7.692%

By rounding off,

The decrease in pizza sale was by 7.700%.

= 7.7%

A person enters the room.
The mean age of the 6 people is now 16.
What is the age of the person who entered the room?

Answers

Answer:

3 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

( 21 + 24 + 18 + 15 + 15 + x ) / 6 = 16

93 + x = 96

x = 3

The person who entered the room is 3 years old.

Answer:

3 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

x= age of the person who entered the room

The sum of 21,+ 24,+ 18,+ 15,+ 15 = 93

(93+x )     divided into 6 = 16

Multiply both sides by 6

93+x = 96

x=3

 93+3= 96

96/6 = 16

The cost of renting Party Palace is $ 120 plus $ 15 per person attending the party. If the total cost of renting Party Palace is $ 480 , how many people attend the party?

Answers

Answer:

24 individuals

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the actual costs as well as the final total then we can calculate the total number of people that attended the party by doing the following. We first subtract the fixed cost of $120 by the total cost of the party, and then we divide the remainder by the cost per person, which would give us the number of people who attended (x) ...

($480 - $120) / $15 = x

$360 / $15 = x

24 = x

last month kiera ran 22 more miles than bianca did if they ran a combined total of 86 miles how many miles did bianca run

Answers

Answer:

54 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

86 - 22= 64. 64÷2= 32. BIANCA RAN 32 MILES. 32 + 22= 54. kiera ran 54 miles

Bianca ran 32 miles last month while Kiera ran 54 miles (22 more) for a combined total of 86 miles.

Let x = miles Bianca ran

x + 22 = miles Kiera ran

combined total of their miles is 86 miles

x + (x + 22) = 86

solving for x

2x + 22 = 86

2x = 86 - 22

2x = 64

x = 64 / 2

x = 32

therefore, Bianca ran for 32 miles.
